That is still an unplanned interruption of service. It makes a world of difference.

As far as money as concerned, SE has been very reasonable in reference to this game and they have been making smart moves in that department. I have no doubt they will handle this acceptably.
But theres nothing to handle. You know ahead of time whether your billing cycle will cut short. You have every opportunity to cancel service. Any action on their part is just generosity. But doing nothing is perfectly acceptable.
